New server = Request for new features

[Tam]

Sure, i realise its early days on the new server ... but..

Can we have a bigger PM allowance, say 50 sent 50 received.

Slightly longer sig allowance too would be nice


How about being able to upload our own avatars to the forums rather than finding remote hosting... (not a concern for me, but I'm sure it might be for some).


And seeing as i'm asking, perhaps you can review the ISpy feature to see if server load / performance now allows it. http://www.vbispy.com/

Sod off, i'm going to bed

LOL - bah - thought i might of caught you still in the installing mood.... I'll await for m0rk's sarcasm in the morning

Night mate - thanks again,

 

[ZBOYD]

how about no, followed by a bigger no.

100 PM messages for each user = lots of database space so probably not ideal.

See above.

Isn't that the way it works atm?

Err... pass.

 

[m0rk]

PM limit as above, db space

Sig allowance - because we spend many hours trying to come up with a conducive 'look' only to have people add half a page of crud after it.

vbispy was pretty heavy on server load - so yes, we have a new one... but we can't afford another one (YET)

I have found a mod that should only show each users sig once per thread, so that may be a work around.

I'm not saying allow a massive sig, but - my current sig is not allowed under the new rules..... (hence I cannot edit it ever again!)

 

[ZBOYD]

That's a shame, but at the end of the day we don't run the forum for the sake of signatures.

 

[Glovepup]

I'm happy with the way things are

Although it would appear admins run different rules for their sigs

Suppose you have to have something extra seeing as its your server

 

[m0rk]

hah ha, yes - admin's have different rules applied (same as n00bs have no signatures)

it's like comunism, where everyone is equal - but some are more equal than others.

 

[ZBOYD]

Yup Got to have some perks.

I hear you've even got PM boxes that hold 32 messages!

Yup, mines actually less, because answering PM's annoys me

I think you should therefore add
"..................and don't PM me" to your sig. (I've already got the message. )

 

[Empi5]

Did someone mention ISPY

 

[ZBOYD]

Forget iSpy, it isn't happening until we decide its usable. I'd rather concentrate on getting things running smoothly before adding to the server load.

That'd cover me for about 36hrs of received PM's......
